How do I select all of something in the trade/stock exchange/etc. windows?

Post by Arneas_Dorn » Thu, 7. Feb 13, 21:52

So I've been hitting the stock exchange to get some capital built up before I go galivanting around, but I am having a hell of a time.

Every time I go to buy a stock, no matter how carefully I mouse-click on the bar, I can never select all of the available stock. Likewise, when I go to sell, I can't ever select all of the available stock, because the numbers are so high and I guess the gradations are so very small.

I end up having to sell like three or four times before there is a small enough amount for me to be able to click to select all of the rest.

Is there some easier way, or do I just have to keep hovering my mouse to the very edge and selling three or four times?

'Home' and 'End' keys?

If you're on a shortened keyboard and home/end aren't usable, you can use the arrow keys also, they will start incrementing at 1 unit, then multiples the longer you hold the key.
